Adversity

You’ve stepped into quick sand
Frantically in panic for your life
The fastest seconds you can ever experience
Leaving you in delirium but did you know you can still survive?
 
That’s right…
Regain your composure
Control your actions you can save yourself from this fatal fashion
 
Look at the bigger picture through a focused mind
No one can steal your mental shine
 
Adversity can only bring you down if you choose to fall in your faith
No matter the unfortunate circumstances you can push through it
And start advancing
 
Living in a world of risk and reward the biggest risk you can pass up is not giving enough. Don’t subside your trust.
 
Just trust
 
You can be the best you in every shape, in every form.
Don’t let the quicksand take your heart and leave you torn.
 
Adversity

He loves her
He loves her not
She loves him
She loves him not

Whether lover family friend or foe
There’s always multiple sides to the story
Starting with impressions that pressure you
To make judgments
Judging qualities that compliment your character
Qualifying candidates to secure your insecurities
He loves her
He loves her not
So she drives herself through insanity
Abusing her intelligence
So arrogant
So careless
That she cares so much about what he thinks of her
She forgot to care for herself
She loves him
She loves him not
So he proceeds to prowl the Market of other
Wounded arches
Cupids arrow sparking his aim on the prize
Sniper rifle parking his target carefully
His only recipe to hide emotionally
Is dividing the open sea
So appropriately
Looking for closure. Trying to heal his injured heart.
They love
They love not
Two souls separated by destiny
The referee keeps referencing towards a better future
Well their past keeps shadowing any form of progression
So they digress
Whether lover family friend or foe
There’s always multiple sides to the story
He loves her
He loves her not
She loves him
She loves him not

Rainstorm

A billion drops of liquids
Tap dancing on the pavement
Flowing towards the gutter lanes
And washing away the worlds pain
Some clouds are darker than others
Some bigger than most
The sun is undercover
Just sailing galactic boats
Little humans playing in their rain boots
Little animals biting at the sky
Flowers and cultivation
Trying to breath, just to get dry
Fireplaces are burning fiercely
Hot chocolate on the stove
Big humans cuddle up
Expressing their love, forever grown.
Some voices voice their disgust
All wet from the day
Others speak happiness
of the sky's beautiful shade of grey
The storm is getting lighter
The days a bit brighter
Higher in a joyful stable
Ceased rain has left a rainbow

Your Road to Destiny

Look at the world like no other has perceived. 
Take the apple of your eye 
Set the focus on a horizon  
Where the climax is beneficial to your elevation. 
Sometimes it is hard to grow  
Without the proper nutrition 
But if you nourish your ambition 
The outcome can be so real 
It seems fictitious. 
Do not think a blessing cannot bless your atmosphere 
If you live in fear then you are fearing the unknown 
That possibility can possibly be serenity 
Giving you ultimate energy  
That is just right to comfort your soul. 
If you push away though 
How would you ever know? 
The progress can be quite painful 
Bringing stress and anger 
Mixed with doubt seeping from your pore's 
Do not reek defeat 
When the battle has yet to begin 
Regain your composure  
Retain your pungent odor 
Transform to refreshing 
And recycle what you're investing
You are meant to make an impact 
A purpose no one else can influence 
Your whole being was uniquely created 
for greatness. 
Gigantic or small in stature 
You will never know your pasture 
If you resist the irrigation your destiny is after 
So please... 
Grow and sow your bountiful fruits to this Earth 
There is someone out there that needs you 
Someone who's path needs your direction 
Just do not test it 
Let the nature of its grace be unexpected 
Live like you already know your essence 
It will come to you when the time is essential 
Yet until then... 
Continue to explore your whole potential.
